Re: [VAC] The Birds



Way to go Vanessa,

A woman with style and boondocking insight to boot. 

Sandie thinks of our catalyltic heater as her own personal fire place on chilly mornings. Her
favorite breakfast spot is the writing table opposite the catalytic heater. When she's happy,
everyone's happy. And that means "we" like to use the A/S even when the weather is chilly starting
in the spring and ending in the fall just before winterizing is necessary. 

And yes, after 40 years of using a catalytic heater with many different healthy kitties sleeping on
the floor at night proved to us that carbon monoxide was not an issue for us in any Airstream we've
ever owned (even the one with tight fitting thermopane windows). All it takes is one day with a
broadside wind to verify that random ventilation is a consistent feature of all Airstreams (and
other RVs).
